Enzymes are biological catalysts that accelerate chemical reactions while remaining unchanged, playing a crucial role in metabolic processes.
• The conditions de catalyse enzymatique optimales depend on factors like pH, temperature, and substrate concentration
• Spécificité de l'action enzymatique ensures each enzyme catalyzes only one specific type of reaction
• The formation complexe enzyme-substrat occurs in two main steps: complex formation and catalytic activation
• Enzyme activity is measured by the amount of substrate transformed per enzyme molecule per unit time
• Structural modifications can significantly impact enzyme activity and function
